I am sponsered by Jymsu Bass Baits and Greg Clarks Countryside Marina. Up until the past two years I have fished charity events. I have fished The Phil Shoppe Circuit for the last two years and have finished in the money 3 times. This is my first year with BFL and I have had boat trouble.

I promote MADD and do a lot of boat shows with Greg Clark in Asheville and Greenville. I take my rig to MADD events such as The Governors Highway Safety Commission Rally, Walk Like MADD in Raleigh, Charlotte Parades, and wherever I am invited. This year my wife and I celebrated our honeymoon working the Classic in Shreveport, LA with Jymsu Bass Baits. We became supporters of MADD when our six year old grandson was killed by a drunk driver in 2006. We organize and hold a tournament "The Korey Owens Memorial-MADD Benefit- Team Bass Tournament". We usually have this tournament around Mothers Day but this year with planning a wedding, so we are moving it to the fall. We offer $1000.00 first place; $500.00 second place; and $250.00 third place. All entry fees go to MADD. We usually have a MADD representative at our weigh-in to accept the donation.
